A brief, semi-structured, bereavement support group for HIV seropositive and at risk homosexual men suffering a recent loss of a close friend or lover is described. The intervention employed a set of topics to stimulate group discussion. These topics were organized into three phases: making contact, venting of emotion, and “moving on.” Our predictive theoretical model integrating life stressor appraisal, social support availability, and active coping was incorporated. Therapeutic foci are active monitoring of stressor load; accurate stressor appraisal; extending, using and evaluating one's social support network; and selection of adaptive coping strategies. Three vignettes illustrate the integration of the research protocol with clinical issues. Implications for clinical care are discussed
